Dear slr-why don't you get certificate
from Colonel W. II. w. Of Baltimore,
showing how he cured himself Of drunken
ness by the help of Hop Bitters. His is q
wonderful case. He is well known In
Rochester, n. Y, by all the drinking peo-
pie there. He is known In this city, Gin
cinnati, New Orleans, New York; In fact,
all over the country, as he has spent thou
sands Of dollars for rum. l honestly be-
lieve his card would be worth thousands Of
dollars TO you in this city and Baltimore
alone, and make thousands Of sober men
by inducing the use Of your bitters.

Prejudice Kills,

"Eleven years our daughter suffered on q
bed Of misery under the care OF several Of
the best physicians, who gave her disease
various names but no relief, and now she
is restored to us In good health by Hop
Bitters, that We had poohed at two years
before using It, We earnestly hope and
pray that no one else will let their sick
suffer as we did, on account OF prejudice
against SO good medicine as Hop Bltters."
